Baloney?

CHICAGO — I see on the front page of your newspaper a picture of the President and a turkey. The one in command, Ronald Reagan, is bragging about the fate of the bird--how good it will taste after it is killed, etc.

As an animal lover, I think it is in poor taste. Maybe in order to live we must kill, but if a beast is unfortunate enough to find itself on the wrong side of the survival fence, let`s not add insult to injury by humiliating it.

Anyway, considering what has transpired in the White House lately, I think the meat served there should not have been turkey but baloney.
